It was supposed to be a good week for Lindsay Lohan. Everyone's favorite teenage drama queen just signed on to pitch a line of high-end purses and, on Friday, will celebrate her 18th birthday.
But thanks to her dad, the celebratory mood has soured.
Once again, her paternal unit is in hot water with the cops. On the heels of his arrest for a May scuffle with his brother-in-law comes word of yet another arrest, this time for skipping out on a hotel bill.
Michael Lohan was busted Tuesday in Long Island for ducking out on a $3,800 bill at a posh local hotel in April. Apparently, he booked some suites for guests and refused to pay the bill, despite multiple attempts at collection by the management of the Oheka Castle hotel.
Lawyers for the now infamous dad say the arrest boils down to a bad credit card.
"As far as I know Michael arranged to have the bill paid via credit card, and for reasons he was not aware of, the card did not go through," Lohan's attorney Marvin Hirsch told New York Newsday. "No one contacted him, no one let him know the bill didn't get paid, and next thing you know, two cops show up at the courthouse."
The elder Lohan was released from jail on $250 bond (let's hope he paid cash) after being charged with misdemeanor for theft of services.
Tuesday was a double whammy for him. Daddy dearest was picked up by the cops for the hotel-bill flap following a court appearance for that May family feud. In the latter case, he is facing assault charges for allegedly slapping around his brother-in-law during a first communion bash. He's also facing prosecution next week in Manhattan for losing his temper and punching a sanitation worker in the face for blocking his car into a parking space.
Aside from the whole father fiasco, the Freaky Friday star is marking the days until she can vote and legally date That '70s Show's Wilmer Valderrama in high style. Literally. She has just been recruited as the new face of Dooney & Bourke handbags.
She will be the pitchwoman in a new ad campaign for a new line of waterproof canvas purses. The handbags, featuring enamel charms spelling out Dooney & Burke and another line featuring hearts drawn out in crayon colors, will be available starting in August.
Meanwhile, Lohan is keeping busy with her new role as Hollywood's hottest It Girl. She recently hosted the MTV Movie Awards and an episode of Saturday Night Live and starred in Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen. Her latest flick, Mean Girls, opened in May to strong reviews and the number one spot at the box office. And she recently signed on again with Disney, who gave her her first big break in a remake of The Parent Trap for a remake of the 1969 flick The Love Bug.
